Id like to ask about hallucinations and Delusions.
What exactly is delusion and hallucination?
Before i go to sleep i imagine many things "like for example i am deffirent from others and stronger" it helps me calm my mind and put me to sleep but Is this Delusion?(Btw i used to do that since i was a kid but something like daydreaming)
Hallucinations? Sometimes i talk myself or when i imaginate i make even a dialog.
I dont know about these stuff and id like to ask u since you guys know many things.
I have been feeling like i lose touch with reality i do things robotly and i dont have enought money to visit a therapist
After reading so many things on the internet i really have forgot what is like being logical.
Are those emotions/feelings normal or Psychotic?
what made me write here is that i did a test with the baby about veing psychotic the first 4 times i saw it i couldnt realize it but know i can see it

Once psychosis come it comes hard , usually. So you will know it, (impossible to hold a job and coexist in social settings are examples) and the people around you will know it (they may ask you to go to a doctor, or even possibly escort you to hospital).
Schizophrenia is just one outcome (1% of the population), some people (Most!) will not get that far , maybe they have protective biological qualities or better coping mechanisms. BUT..could go on to develop general anxiety disorder , or OCD or bipolar without psychotic features.
OR they could just grow out of it , just a phase..
